A 60 ml gel with 40 grams of carbohydrates per sachet. SiS Beta Fuel Gel Orange delivers those carbohydrates in a 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose, intended for exercise lasting more than two hours. The gel has a mild orange flavor. Ready to use straight away, with no mixing required. Gluten-free, suitable for vegans, and Informed Sport certified.
SiS's standard energy gel, the GO Isotonic, delivers 22 grams of carbohydrates per 60 ml. The Beta Fuel gel delivers 40 grams per the same 60 ml, from two sources in a 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose. For exercise lasting more than two hours, SiS recommends 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour. Two Beta Fuel gels per hour deliver 80 grams. You would need almost four GO Isotonic gels to get the same amount of carbohydrates.
The Beta Fuel gel contains two carbohydrate sources: maltodextrin (30%) and fructose (23%), in a 1:0.8 ratio. Many other energy gels use a single source or a 2:1 ratio. Each gel provides 40 grams of carbohydrates, of which 19 grams are sugars.
The Beta Fuel 80 powder sachet contains no sodium. The gel does: sodium citrate and sodium chloride are listed in the ingredients. It contains a modest amount of 0.04 grams of salt per gel. If you sweat heavily during prolonged exercise, you can add a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet to your drinking water.
Two Beta Fuel gels per hour deliver 80 grams of carbohydrates. Three gels deliver 120 grams. If desired, combine them with the Beta Fuel 80 sachet if you have a bottle with you, or use them on their own as a gel strategy if you are riding or running without a bottle.
Almost twice as many carbohydrates as the GO Isotonic gel (22 grams), in a 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose. Two carbohydrate sources in one 60 ml gel.
The Beta Fuel 80 powder sachet contains no sodium. The Beta Fuel gels do: each gel contains a small amount of sodium from sodium citrate and sodium chloride. When sweating intensely, combine the gels with a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet.
The gel is a 60 ml liquid product, ready to squeeze out. You don't need to dissolve or mix anything. With 1 to 3 gels per hour, you get the recommended 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates without a shaker or powder. In addition, just keep drinking during your exercise.
All Beta Fuel gels are screened by Informed Sport for WADA-listed banned substances per production batch. No artificial colours in the formula. Free from gluten, lactose, wheat, and nuts. Suitable for vegans.

The GO Isotonic gel provides 22 grams of carbohydrates from a single source (maltodextrin) per 60 ml gel. The Beta Fuel gel provides 40 grams of carbohydrates from two sources in a 1:0.8 ratio per 60 ml gel. The Beta Fuel gel is intended for exercise lasting more than two hours where you need 80 to 120 grams per hour. The GO gel is more suitable for shorter sessions or as a supplement for lower carbohydrate needs.
SiS chooses the Beta Fuel gel for a ratio of 1:0.8 maltodextrin to fructose, whereas many other products use 2:1. Maltodextrin and fructose are two different carbohydrate sources. This way, you get 40 grams of carbohydrates per gel, of which 19 grams are sugars.
With the recommended 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour, you will need 2 to 3 gels per hour, one every 20 to 30 minutes. If you combine them with the Beta Fuel 80 sachet, add up the carbohydrates. A sachet provides 80 grams, a gel 40 grams. Adjust your intake to the intensity and duration of your effort and always test this in training first, never for the first time on race day.
That is not mandatory, the gel is a liquid product that you can take without extra water. However, it is wise to continue drinking water during prolonged exercise, regardless of the gels. The gels contain a small amount of sodium (0.04 g salt per gel). If you sweat a lot, you can combine them with a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet.
The Orange variant has a mild orange flavor with added flavoring. If you want a gel without flavoring, there is also a neutral variant of the Beta Fuel gel. During long training sessions or races, you can alternate flavors.
Maurten uses a hydrogel technology with a similar carbohydrate ratio (fructose and maltodextrin) and is also isotonic. Maurten gels provide 25 grams of carbohydrates per gel (Maurten Gel 100 provides 100 grams but is larger). The Beta Fuel gel provides 40 grams per 60 ml. In terms of formula, the similarities outweigh the differences. The price difference is significant. Per gram of carbohydrate, the Beta Fuel gel is cheaper.
